Zander Aachen SPEEDY ZX8T User Information

High- SPEED-Mikro - SPS SPEEDY ZX8T
User Information
Correct Use SPEEDY ZX8T is the micro-PLC for maximum performance with
minimum dimensions. The heart of the control is not a micro-
controller, rather an CPLD-chip. This means that SPEEDY runs
your program internally absolutely parallel and in real-time –
with no cycle times.
SPEEDY ZX8T is used for controlling of the application flow
at machinery and equipment. It may not be used for control-
ling of safety circuits. The compliance to the relevant re-
quirements for installation and operation, especially
EN 60204-1, "Electrical equipment of machines", is part of
the normal use.
High-speed – no cycle times
Features 
9 digital inputs

8 digital transistor outputs

1 counter input, optionally also as digital input

2 potentiometers for adjustable time functions

High interference protection, mains filter,

overvoltage protection
 Simple programming
 Power fail safe
 Modular extension facility
 Plug-in terminals
Scope of Applica-
Due to the CPLD technology controlling without any cycle
tions
time is provided, because all signals are operated parallelly.
So the reaction time will remain constant - regardless of the
complexity of the application.
Any problems with different cycle times and corresponding
reaction times are things of the past. No matter how fast a
packaging machine runs - the cutting will be controlled in an
accurately fitting manner and the gluing will be placed at
the right position.
For this reason SPEEDY ZX8T is the ideal controller for fast
processes at packaging machines, cutting facilities, printing
stations, bottling plants, gluing stations, plastic injection
moulding machines.
